    “The bedding was extremely comfortable.”

    (Pros) 1. The Novotel bedding was so comfortable that I even searched to find out what it was. 2. Location. It is connected to Exit 3 of Yongsan Station and is convenient for using I-Park Mall. It is also easy to take a taxi outside. 3. The breakfast variety was ample and satisfying. 4. I appreciated the upgrade to a high-floor room in terms of service. (Cons) The only downside is that the sink is right next to the bed and the bathroom is relatively small. Overall, I am very satisfied and would like to use it again!

    “It's good for dating with a partner.”

    It's near I-Park Mall, so it's good for late-night movies and dates. The breakfast was decent, with a variety of options that were reasonably good. It's a bit more expensive than Ibis, but the quality is relatively better as well.

    “Location price highest”

    I had a great stay at a good facility in this location during the peak season at a very reasonable price. There are several hotels in the area, which makes it feel like I'm in Singapore, and it was very convenient to go shopping at Yongsan Station. Parking was easy, and even though it was nearly 40 degrees, it felt like a lifesaver of a hotel. I will use it again next time.

    “It was good.”

    There are a lot of pop-ups at I-Park Mall and plenty to see, but the journey there was too hot. I think it was because I went in the middle of summer. So, I mostly took a taxi for transportation. It was a bit disappointing that there weren't many amenities on the floor directly below, but the size was large, the room condition was fairly clean, and most importantly, I slept very well.

    “First visit”

    This is my first visit to Novotel, and the location near Yongsan Station was good. I think I prefer the view of Namsan over the view of the Han River. Since the surrounding area is under construction, a high floor is better..! I was going to use the smart TV, but the HDMI cable was missing, so an employee came to check it, and they were kind. My room was right in front of the elevator, but I could hear the conversations of the people waiting very clearly, so it seems there's not much soundproofing.
